Answers:

I'm 20 now. I lost my virginity at 12 years old - I wouldn't reprimand you for the same things I did - and honestly - i have no regrets.

All of the questions you asked here were my main concerns as a 13 year old (actually, they were my concerns until I turned 18!!) - I only wish I had yahoo answers!!

Now when you say a 'full physical", do you mean with a gynecologist? or with your primary care doctor? Because if its your primary care doctor he should NOT be looking so closely at your 'private parts'.
which can answer more of your questions - like he will not know if your hymen is broken..

The nurse SHOULD be there..just in case the doctor ever tried to do anything 'funny'.

Your mom doesn't have to be there if you dont want her to - but because you're only 13, i dont think that the doctor can force her to leave the room.

If it IS a 'lady doctor' (I hope you know what i mean when i say lady doctor, gynecologist) then YES. they will know that your hymen is broken. Becuase you're 13 i think that your doctor can share the information with your mom - actually, i think the doctor legally has to. I would ask your doctor himself if he can.
As for giving away patient information as a 'friend' and not a 'doctor'...thats illegal. If you're of age (which I'm not sure if you are)..then your doctor can not discuss information with ANYBODY asside from you unless he has your permission.
HOWEVER, i THINK you might be under age for that to be true!...i think because you are under 16 years old, that he CAN tell your mom. i'm not 100% sure though.

Its good to have a truthful relationship with your doctor. If I were you, I would ask him if he has to tell your mom about the stuff that you and him talk about. If he says no, i'd be truthful with him. You COULD say that your hymen broke from a tampon or something...but your best bet is to be as honest as you can. .... I say this becuase one day you might have questions about your body (If god forbid one day you thought you had an STD or something) and such and it would be good to consult your doctor about such questions.

Good luck, dont be nervous. I was in your shoes at 13. I know how it is. Please be safe. One thing that I DID NOT take into consideration at 13 ((until i was 19 actually)) was STD's. I never used protection and i'm REALLY lucky that I never got any kind of STD. I always thought that i was safe becuase I was on the pill. Be careful! Be safe!
______________________________...
I had to come back and add this after reading others answers. Dont pay attention to people who call you names 1st of all. We all have our own bodies and we make our own decisions. As long as your being safe - theres nothing to look down upon. and like you said - you are being safe.

Also, it seems that other people think that your doctor CAN NOT tell your mom about what you talk about with him.. They could be totally right.
I hope that I did not scare you by saying that they might legally have to tell your mom - like I said, i'm not 100% sure. ...your best bet is to ask the doctor himself before he starts the physical.
